However, the ISP said it has no estimated dates for the work to be completed. There are also no plans to connect any of the exchanges around Alice Springs.

Internode offers broadband and phone plans across Australia, both on its own network and on the Telstra Wholesale network. Where Internode has installed its own ADSL2+ DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer), the ISP can offer cheaper Easy Broadband plans to customers, as well as Easy Naked plans.

Plans accessed through the Telstra Wholesale network are referred to as Easy Reach plans and are more expensive.

Internode has often complained about Telstra's 'price squeeze' and has recently increased prices on Easy Reach plans, prompting criticism from customers.

Out of contract customers who are affected by the changes can either pay more, switch plans or find a cheaper ISP by calling Compare Broadband on 1300 106 571.
